Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011005616A2] A fluid flow control system for controlling flow of a primary fluid to a downstream flow-inducing device includes a moving fluid expander with variable expansion ratio and variable speed arranged to receive the flow of the primary fluid and to expand the primary fluid, resulting in a reduction in temperature of the primary fluid. The system further includes an optional heat exchanger arranged to receive the reduced-temperature primary fluid as well as a higher-temperature secondary fluid and to cause varying degrees of heat exchange between the primary and secondary fluids such that the secondary fluid is cooled by the primary fluid. The primary fluid is discharged from the heat exchanger and is supplied to the flow-inducing device.
